Because of his trust, she felt that her heart was filled with warmth. After thinking about it, she then reached out to gently hold his hand that rested on her thigh. His cool temperature seeped through her palm, so after a while, it became warm too.
It did not matter what others said about her as she did not care. She was only worried about how he would react. However, no one would be comfortable hearing such words, even more so since he was such a prideful person.

She dared not utter another word and just silently looked at his hands.
